Abstract: A network device may receive, from an origination device associated with a first VxLAN, traffic destined for a destination device associated with a second VxLAN, wherein the network device is a VTEP of the first VxLAN. The network device may identify an address of the destination device included in the traffic and may thereby determine an anycast address associated with an EVPN DCI that is associated with the first VxLAN and the second VxLAN. The network device may determine, based on the anycast address, respective unicast addresses of a plurality of gateway network devices associated with the EVPN DCI, and may thereby identify a particular gateway network device, of the plurality of gateway network devices, to which the traffic is to be forwarded. The network device may forward the traffic to a unicast address of the particular gateway network device.
